Pacemaker contact sensitivity: clinical recognition and management.

H I Abdallah¹, R K Balsara, A C O'Riordan.

Abstract

We report a patient in whom vesicular lesions of the skin developed overlying the pacemaker at intervals of 3 to 8 months after each of three consecutive insertions. Patch skin tests were positive for titanium and polyurethane sensitization. Although pacemaker contact sensitivity is rare, its recognition is of vital importance to the pacemaker-dependent patient.
